The plan includes replacing existing diesel-powered vehicles with electric and other environmentally friendly alternatives. This shift is expected to not only lower carbon emissions but also improve air quality in Bangalore, addressing concerns over urban pollution.

City officials highlight that the transition to a green SWM fleet aligns with broader environmental goals and enhances operational efficiency in waste management practices. By adopting cleaner technologies, Bangalore seeks to lead by example in sustainable urban development.

The move towards eco-friendly waste management vehicles is part of Bangalore's comprehensive strategy to promote greener practices across various sectors. It reflects the city's proactive stance in tackling environmental challenges and promoting a healthier living environment for its residents.

As Bangalore prepares to meet its 2025 target, stakeholders anticipate significant strides in reducing the ecological footprint of solid waste management operations. The adoption of green technologies is expected to set a precedent for other cities in India striving towards sustainable urbanisation and environmental stewardship.
